Skills Taught:   Computer

Detailed Description (What):

Install a monitor on lower shelf in center cabinet section above switching layout. Would not be visible when cabinet door is closed.

Reason(s) (Why):

For use with JMRI Decoder Pro. The current monitor is hard to see, uncomfortable to look at and takes the HO Layout staging camera offline when in in use. Also creates congestion when trying to access staging area.

Notes:

Should cost under $100. As more people start to use Decoder Pro to program their locos, this will make it MUCH easier. Could also be used to browse the internet. Should also buy an easier to use full size keyboard (similar to what we have on the current computer) eat cost around $20.
